Japan, Hirohito (1901-1989) acceded in 1926 and his reign was

pleasure that we have received... to inform us that after being
elected Constitutional President of the Republic of Bolivia...
sending to His Excellency our congratulations at the occasion of
His taking office, we are convinced that the good ties existing
between our Two Countries will be even closer..." Countersigned by
Yosuke Matsuoka, Minister of Foreign Affairs. In 1998 similar

The pre and post sales experience was wonderful and flawless. Heritage has the best in-house operation I have ever seen and their people are not only professional but fun to work with, especially Steve C.

As for Heritage's online system… Yes the interface is more complex than what we are used to with SAN but what is behind that interface is amazing for sellers and buyers alike. It is real time and for a real serious auction buyer there is nothing better in the auction industry, bar none.
